Carl Hild - Stone Sculptor

Fragments.  Fragments of bodies.  Fragments of stone.  Fragments of some unexpressed story.  Abstracts of larger structures.  Expressions in marble.  Short stories.  Offering a glimpse of an entirety.

Each sculpture starts with a long look at the stone.  What does it contain?  What story resides within?  It takes time with the stone to know what lays inside.  Then it becomes a process of removing what is not needed to accurately tell the story that the rock holds.
